Trattoria Da Gianna - PIAZZA ARMERINA

Unforgettable experience...magnificent simple meal garnished with the sweetest and kindest service. Typical sicilian prelibacies served with passion

We were welcomed warmly by the owner- he explained the dishes and said that Pasta alla Norma was cooked 5 minutes ago. We had two pastas, both of them delicious, full of flavors, with that mouthful that only home-cooked meals can provide. As a dessert we had a cannolo (they make the pastry themselves), filled with two types of ricotta: goat and sheep, and it was one of the best cannolos we ever had. Signora Gianna was preparing everything upon order and checking from the kitchen if we were happy with the dishes. This type of succulent Sicilian food is why we come back to Sicily every year!

I just love this place we were here 3 years ago and had lunch at Gianna's. After the pandemic I am so relieved that it's still there and the couple who run it are well. It's going to be closed now for them to have a holiday but if you come some other time to Piazza Armerina then I recommend it for simple but delicious home made food. I remember before I was puzzled by some reviews which said the owners were not friendly but we found the total opposite. I think if you are nice and friendly then you will get a good welcome. . It may help I have a go at speaking Italian I think locals really appreciate that. They were really sweet and we had aubergines with parmesan it was delicious and it's not expensive. It's not a fast food place. Sit in a nice little piazza have a glass of wine and don't rush. And there is a fantastic gelateria right next door!!!

Trattoria di pesce nel centro di piazza Armerina. Una piacevole scoperta non immaginando che in una città nel centro della Sicilia il pesce può essere fatto così bene! Conto finale un po’ più caro rispetto alle aspettative ma complessivamente soddisfatto.

Tutti buono, 2 antipasti 2 primi, birra vino 1 caffè 1 dolce 56€. Però il pos non si accendeva, strano. Solo contanti. No scontrino. Ricevuta scritta a penna su blocchetto senza timbro.
